Dumb SSH Question

[gen2newB]

Hey All,

I have a dumb question as the name implies. I used SSH to do the install from a work laptop running win2k and a small windoze ssh client program on my private LAN at home, but when i try to connect from work, i can not connect. I dont connect through any proxies at work as i am a Network tech here but at home i do have a router with NAT setup. I did have it setup for port 22 to be forwarded to the box. I also used "passwd root" to change the password to a known value. I left everything default in the config sshd config file too. I dont know if this has to do anything with it, but when i started sshd i was not in a chroot environement, i was in the LiveCD. Afterwards i did a chroot locally and continued the install. I was hoping that i could finish the install from work, but i can not connect to the server. Help Please!
